Photography by Yu Hsin

(Explosion of ) happiness,  (scream of ) craziness and of course the involvement of your mother *lol* I think this is what the marriage is all about, isn’t it?.

On a serious note, I heart this photo. I definitely want to have a photo like this from my wedding that allows me to talk “remember about this moment?” every time I see this photo.  This is what I think wedding photo should be. It tells the story about memories of the day spontaneously and how with one frame can represent the whole day’s event.

I am sure everyone agrees with the moment – no doubt about it. But in a moment like this, probably not everyone seeing it like Yu Hsin. Given the same moment in the hand of different photographer – it will turn out differently. I always believe that if you are professional, there is no such thing as lucky shot. I believe the frame is what makes this photo distinguishably good, how Yu Hsin composed two different supporting info about the main point of interest. The top frame is also left blank, as if we can hear the sound of the flying cork without actually being able to see it.

For me, it has everything what wedding photo should be. Perfect composition, timing and anticipation. By this one frame really highlights how the day was going.

I love the simplicity of Adrian’s photo here. I am so proud to be his mentor in this past 2 years. He never shot a wedding before joining my Foto Expression team. He’s got a knack for journalistic shots and  I reckon his talent will make him  a great wedding  journalist.

Adrian definitely saw the reflection glass and anticipate this frame by waiting patiently until the right moment. For me, how this photo becomes successfully executed is not only about the reflection, but how he composed the frame symmetrically. The way the maid of honor led the bride’s arm also adding a dramatic touch of feeling of the bride’s being rushed to the ceremony.
